About this item

  • IDEAL FOR BEGINNER GROWERS: CVG has been helping beginner growers experience the joys of bulk substrates for decades. It’s a simple recipe – Coco, Vermiculite, and Gypsum – that yields consistent results.
  • PREMIUM CVG BLEND: We use premium, third-party tested ingredients, then hydrate to field capacity and sterilize in industrial autoclaves for a bulk substrate that provides dependable yields.
  • LOWER CONTAMINATION RISK: Ingredients have a low bacterial load and low nitrogen levels making them less prone to contamination and ideal for beginner growers.
  • THIRD-PARTY TESTED: Our ready-to-use CVG blend starts with our own RHP-certified Myco Coco as the base (the first coco coir researched and selected specifically for its mushroom cultivation qualities). We then add asbestos-free, horticulture-grade, US-sourced vermiculite and complete the trifecta with OMRI-approved gypsum.
  • SPAWN TO BULK RATIO: We recommended mixing 1 colonized grain spawn bag with 2-3 bags of CVG. (Higher inoculation rates may improve your success.)
  • STORAGE: CVG should be stored at room temperature out of direct sunlight. No refrigeration is necessary. They can also be stored for several months before use.
  • BEST PRACTICES: We recommend clean hands, latex or nitrile gloves, and sterile technique when using CVG to reduce the introduction of contaminants. It is also best practice to wait a minimum of 1 week after arrival before using sterile substrates to ensure they were not compromised during transit.
